Who Should I Start? Case Keenum or Jayden Daniels

Chicago Bears quarterback Case Keenum (leg) has made the 53-man roster and will open 2025 as the team's third-string signal-caller. Keenum has been dealing with a minor leg injury this month, but it won't be enough to keep him off the roster. The well-traveled 37-year-old joined the Bears in free agency in April after a second stint with the Houston Texans. He didn't play at all last year after suffering a foot injury and hasn't attempted 100-plus passes in a season since 2019, which he spent with Washington. With Caleb Williams entrenched as QB1 and Tyson Bagent locked into the No. 2 role, Keenum shouldn't see any meaningful action this season unless things go catastrophically wrong for the Bears.

Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said on Wednesday that the team is still "sorting through the medical opinions" on quarterback Jayden Daniels' elbow, according to John Keim of ESPN. Daniels suffered a gruesome-looking left elbow dislocation late in the Sunday night blowout loss to the Seattle Seahawks, but initial X-rays came back negative for any fractures. It remains to be seen whether the 24-year-old suffered any ligament damage in his arm, though, and at the very least, it seems likely that the second-year signal-caller will be forced to Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. While the Commanders are holding out hope that Daniels might return this year, we wouldn't be surprised if he's shut down the rest of the way. In the meantime, veteran Marcus Mariota will start at QB for a banged-up Commanders offense that also lost receiver Luke McCaffrey to a broken collarbone.
